A psicologia tão própria da obra-prima de Mann Heat - Cidade sob Pressão está tristemente, no entanto, compreensívelmente, ausente. Toca uma nota de verão. O argumento, com exceção de algumas pérolas de diálogo, é apenas um filme policial comum, e a dinâmica do filme nem sequer chega perto de corresponder à promessa do trailer poderoso. Ainda assim, o mestre Michael Mann teceu de nada um chicote que vai deixar algumas marcas memoráveis. Para mim, são a primeira vez que Colin Farrell e Li Gong navegam juntos numa mota, aos tons de Moby, tradicionais tática e realismo da ação originais de Mann, e em terceiro lugar, a poesia do final, do qual ninguém sai como um claro vencedor.

A seemingly trivial and many times seen story about infiltration among criminal structures, a feeling that prevailed in me until the 40th minute or so. But starting with the impressive scene with the meeting with the mafia boss (an incredibly charismatic guy, the casting again, as is usual with Mann, was perfect) and the beginning of the development of an unlikely romantic relationship with Isabella (a very charming Gong-Li), the film won me over. What elevates it to the "cinematic elite" is the person of Michael Mann and his directorial inventiveness, the atmosphere, the attention to detail (some really interesting shots), the unconventional concept of action, where authenticity rules above all, the perfect music and score, and you will rarely see such beautifully composed intimate scenes. And the beautiful ending, partly sad and partly full of hope, with the evocative piano accompaniment, convinced me that this film deserves a thumbs up. PS: I don't understand the repeated criticism towards the digital camera, all I can say is "keep it up, Mann".

Bad Boys meets Collateral in Mann's most personal audiovisual fetish of his career to date. The film pumps atmosphere out of overshot testosterone (the perfectly flashy "look," the tough talk), only to then laboriously wring it out in adrenaline-fueled action that, while desperately scarce, is among the most thrilling Mann has made so far. The experiments with the digital medium are still questionable but he should be commended for his courage to use them in a purely mainstream matter for a general audience. Farrell and Foxx are a textbook example of a male friendship, but in terms of the personal lives of their great loves, the director could have put some more intimate words in their mouths, which are more important in such a moment than a formal debate in the form of amorous glances and sexual lust. Even so, it is a delicate spectacle, with a crime plot sufficient for an episode of a series presented in the form of the fluffiest cotton candy, which you quickly eat and only then realize that it was actually amounted to nothing.

An extraordinarily intelligently shot blockbuster that is brought down by a weak screenplay and ostentatious dithering outside the mainstream of traditional detective action. In my opinion, this is the second absolute biggest advantage of the film – I can think whatever I want about the handheld camera, but it is justified in the service of Michael Mann. The atmosphere cuts and nice edge with its rawness and the great musical undertone gives it a modern tempo. The screenplay, unfortunately, is inexcusable. Too little room for character profiling, a boring story structure and no twists – even the excellent Mann can't bring tension and spark to Miami Vice. But just when you think that primarily effects are expected of a film with a budget of 135 million dollars, this authentic story about two guys on the edge of the law becomes a lot of fun. Not as an action movie, but as a raw psychological drama without loops and phrases. I give it a weaker five stars.

I can't remember the last time I was so worried about the outcome, while also being so excited about it. Michael Mann maintains his excellent crime drama standard and at the same time takes great care not to repeat himself. Miami Vice is not as magnificent an action movie as Heat, nor does it contain as much irresistible sophistication as Collateral, and yet it is unique. Surprisingly, the handheld camera works very well for Mann, and Colin Farrell is his best accomplice in building the atmosphere. When I add the well-constructed soundtrack and the unforgettable, nerve-wracking finale, that makes it another masterpiece from this director.

I’ve gotten used to Mann's digital camera, but it doesn't change the fact that Miami Vice would look much better if it was shot the old fashioned way. However, you are thrown into the story in a quite unusual, or almost experimental way. You won't find any opening credits or movie titles at the beginning. You simply find yourself in the middle of the action, thrown into the deep-end, which not every viewer can handle. But if you are willing and pay attention, Mann will win you back with his innate precision. He doesn't try to create a particular effect, but his camera always finds an eye-catching shot (from a flash in the sky, to a raging waterfall). The plot is again typical of Mann: a conflict between crime and order, reflections, personality differences. The actors look like they aren't even acting, they're so great at becoming one with the characters that you believe in them completely (Li Gong and Colin Farrell certainly weren’t acting :). The action is perfect and the shootout at the end comes in second best in my own personal ranking. First place is still occupied by Heat. The only weakness this time is the length. I don't know if it was too protracted, delaying the inevitable, or if it was because I was just sitting in an uncomfortable seat in the movie theater, whatever it was it tainted my overall impression. We’ll see when I try out Miami Vice in the comfort of my own home, maybe I’ll change my mind.

I didn’t like it. I can't help it, but as he gets older, quantity is beginning to outweigh quality in Michael Mann's work, and unfortunately this applies to Miami Vice. The desire for style and maximum effect has replaced the filmmaker's heart that made Heat, while the flat script and somewhat soulless characters make it impossible to tell a compelling story and build atmosphere, as was the case with Collateral. The only thing that holds the film together are the action scenes, the interesting music and Jamie Foxx, whose charisma this time leaves everyone else behind (and that's a shame). If it were any other director, I would give 2*, but with Mann I'll be happy to turn a blind eye one last time.

Michael Mann is not among the directors that I actively seek out. His films have never been the ones that I felt compelled to watch, but I have heard a lot of praise for "Miami Vice". Additionally, Mann returned to a subject that he himself helped launch on television screens in the 80s. The series was cool, people started wearing what Don Johnson, alias James Crockett, and Philip Michael Thomas, alias Ricardo Tubbs, were wearing. The series became cult-like, and it still holds up today, just like the classics of the 70s and 80s. Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx are maybe even cooler than their predecessors, and their action scenes work really well. Unfortunately, action is the main focus of the film and the collaboration between the two main characters is not given enough importance. Humanity is somewhat pushed to the background, and everyone is just a pawn in this great action spectacle. The ending, which tries to be emotional and romantic, does not save it. The content had to give way to the form. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2012/04/jumper-babel-kung-fu-divocina-miami.html
